GIGABYTE Windorce non OC model. Flashed the BIOS to unlock power limit. In benchmark + other games the most clocks it can reach without crashes are around 1900 Mhz memory and 3000 Mhz core with and without undervolting. With unlocked power limit and +400 core the card reaches 70°C and I reach 76 FPS average on steel nomad. With 100% power limit + undervolting 950 mv at 3000 Mhz I get 73 FPS average and card runs 5-10°C cooler. Any suggestions or opinions on what the unlocked power limit can do for the card or should I go back to original BIOS for more security + stability.

I have the same card. I decided to flash back to stock. With undervolt of .995 I get 3000mhz on the core and it runs at typically between 59-61 degrees in games, idles at 29 degrees. I prefer this over a couple extra fps and increased instability. Plus the fans on these cards are loud when they spin up, and I want a silent build set all my fans for the build to have a steep ramp up above 75 degrees.
Edit: I also found that my card never actually needed above 300 watts while tuning with a flashed bios, it always became unstable before pushing above 300 watts with tuning.
hey man, where did you get the bios? I have a **Ventus 3X OC** is it possible to flahs a bios to unlock power limit?
I’m kinda off a noob on this things still.
